Nutritional advice
Garvo’s feeding guidelines are an indication. For the amount of feed the animals need, consider their condition and the ambient temperature. • During the summer, supplement with 200 g per day in order to fulfil the minimal needs for minerals and vitamins. • Give ewes, beginning from 6 weeks before breeding, some extra handfuls of 5073 sheep pellet basic (5mm) or 5071 sheep pellet. This contributes to optimal hormone housekeeping and better fertility. • Supplement only during the first 12 weeks of gestation if the ambient temperature or too-little roughage supply require so. • After the first 12 weeks give some more concentrates. • Build up gradually the amount of 1015 alfamix sheep or 5071 sheep pellet to a maximum of 1 kg per day and give unlimited hay • Make sure there’s always enough fresh water and roughage.
